Ok, I just successfully tested this change. Two questions left: 1. Can you test whether we can drop the /boot partition on Sun partition tables? 2. Now that we can use GRUB, what about updating the default partitioning scheme? Maybe one that is inspired by the layout used on ppc64el: > https://salsa.debian.org/installer-team/partman-auto/tree/master/recipes-ppc64el 3. GRUB installs fine now on Sun partition tables without any further ado? 4. And, just to be safe: Your previous mail contained hashes before the partition layout lines (#). You did not actually have those in your atomic file, correct? Adrian -- .''`.
